Sometimes when the miscarriage isn't complete they will do a D&C to remove any tissue remaining and prevent / stop heavy bleeding or infection.
That is something the doctor decides and you should discuss it with him. There can be different causes for the bleeding.
I recently had a D and C and the surgery itself took less then 15 minutes. The prep time (ie: meeting with the doctor, nurses, anesthesiologist) took about an hour and the recovery time was about 1-1.5 hours. It was very quick and was not very painful. There was mild bleeding for a few days but not more than what you would have with a regular period.AnswerI lost a lot of blood in my op and had blood Transfusion Answeri bleed really heavy and passed big clots after i lost our baby i was about 2 1/2 month along after my d n c i had no bleeding or pain AnswerI was bleeding heavy before d&c, procedure was very quick. However afterward I continued to bleed heavily and cramp for about a week. Only difference was that I wasn't passing clots. I ovulated 2 weeks after the surgery.
The primary risk after the procedure is infection. Signs of infection include: fever heavy bleeding severe cramps foul-smelling vaginal discharge
If you mean Dilation and Curettage, it is indicated to prevent excessive bleeding after a miscarriage. Many doctors recommend a D and C if the patient experiences heavy bleeding for several weeks after a miscarriage or if HCG levels decline too slowly.
Yes this procedure is used for other conditions as well.Some reasons for having a D&C* To find the cause of heavy, irregular or prolonged bleeding.* To remove a polyp (a small, non-cancerous growth) fromthe womb.* To find the cause of vaginal bleeding after menopause.* In some cases, to prevent infection after termination,miscarriage or childbirth.* There are a variety of other reasons for a D&C.
This is an abortion. D&C stands for "dilation and curettage" meaning that the birth canal is spread open and a curette is used to scrape the lining from the uterus, and the developing fetus with it.
Yes they can.
D&C is known as dilation and curettage. It is a surgery that occurs when there is a miscarriage in the first trimester of a pregnancy.
